Which is ubergay. It should either be enforced, or not. You shouldn't have to guess every time you enter a match what the ref is gonna be like this time or whether you have to protect your head or not, that's fucking retarded.

Pankration is much better amatuer MMA. You still can't hit in the face, but at least you can use knees and elbows.

I don't know ICY, I think the light head contact is a good thing. They're only beginners after all. Hell my tournament doesn't even allow for that.

I think it should be NO head contact as opposed to LIGHT contact. Because "light" contact turns into intentional accidents.

On the other hand, when I first started doing MA, I would fight other amatuers at 100% contact, everywhere, with everything, and I never got seriously injured...so, I dunno, I think it would be fine to have a full contact to the head division and a no contact to the head division.
